The performance is set for August 14 at 9:30pm.
Elyse Bell, best known as a nominee at the 2019 Jimmy Awards as well as seen on ABCs QUEENS, brings her very first solo show to a completely sold-out house at 54 Below! Featuring songs from musicals like Little Women and Company, and by artists like Sara Bareilles and Brandi Carlile, Elyse will spend the evening exploring how the ingenue roles from her childhood shaped her into the performer and young woman she is today. It will be a heartwarming evening celebrating the female performers that took the outdated ingenue trope and brought it into the 21st century using heart, comedy, and the shared life experiences gained from being a women.
The concert will feature Bella Coppola (Kinky Boots), music directed by Rebekah Bruce Parker, and band members Yuka Tadano and Ashley Baier.
The concert will be produced by Jacob Stuckelman and Matt Krauss.
